The update this week is short....we had a lot of work. We worked a lot with
our investigators and had some really great lessons. I felt the Spirit very
strongly as we shared with one sister about the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are
teaching her about the right authority...there is something difficult in people
understanding that you need the right authority in all things. But I know that
there may not be fruit from our efforts with her, now...but there will be later
down the road. I am understanding so much more about people and their agency and
the reality that it plays into all that we are doing as missionaries. I wish
some days to really help people use their agency to choose the right...always.
But Heavenly Father loves them all to much to force them...and so I shall
continue forward in faith...in the will of the Lord, knowing that as long as I
give the effort to share with all....there will be a time and place for all of
them. We had a really great lesson with an investigator, who we contacted on the
street. She is interested in learning more about Jesus Christ (our perfect
opportunity to jump in!) and so we have shared with her about the
Restoration....she was like a sponge....and she had questions for us...and it
was just so much fun teaching her :P some days... I think I enjoy this
missionary work too much (Alma 26:35).
We are hoping to find a way to work more with the members, especially now
that we have 8 missionaries called to one branch. We have a lot of work to do
and I know that there is a reason for all things. I am hoping with my new
trainee that we will be able to find those that the Lord has prepared for us. I
am still learning everyday how to become a better missionary....and I hope to
accomplish that someday...siguro yung last day ko sa mission. But I have learned
so much from the opportunity to train Sister Andrada....there is so much to say
about a companionship...everything that we do as a missionary, begins with the
person that you are around 24/7....what a blessing it is if you lean upon the
Lord and seek to learn from the person He has chosen for you to serve with. I
hope that this next trainee will be ready for one of the best transfers :) Hope
you all have a great week :)
Mahal na mahal kita!!
